Sony Vegas Pro 12 doesn’t load video properly

[Ryan Gray]

I have this issue where I had a power surge and it rendered some of my files bad. I went through a drive recovery company and they restored nearly everything, but every time I try to open a .veg project file containing all my AVCHD files, once it encounters a bad .mts file it barfs, freezes and crashes. Tried killing off the .sfk files, tried renaming the file, tried opening the veg.bak file, etc.. I tell it to disregard the bad files (upon loading) and no such luck – Vegas (Pro 13) still crashes. Any suggestions?

Move the bad files out of the folder they are in so that Vegas Pro can’t find them. That should at least get the project to open.

I would try re-rendering the bad files. Obviously there is still something wrong with their format.

OK I re-rendered them as MP4’s. That still didn’t do the trick. Even when I told Vegas to leave them alone, Vegas DOES open. But after about 2 minutes of being open, even if I just leave it there, I get the following Problem Report and Vegas crashes:

This is a wedding… project. it’s horrible…I simply can’t edit it. 🙁

I’ve moved compoundplug.dll out of the compoundplug folder but it still doesn’t work…in fact it takes much longer and asks me to verify each of several hundred clips. So I left it in there. I’ve tried it with GPU rendering off and on. I’ve tried increasing Dynamic RAM. I’ve tried that CTRL-W solution or whatever it is. I’ve tried re-encoding them. I’ve tried killing off the .sfk files. I’ve tried renaming the master project file. I’ve tried moving the bad files to a separate location.

Maybe i need to re-encode every single file .mts and use the new files instead?
